The threat of sea level rise affects all of South Florida – from the ocean to the Everglades. The sea has risen nine inches in the past century. It’s predicted to rise another two feet in less than half that time.

Given this scope, The Miami Herald, The Sun-Sentinel and The Palm Beach Post have teamed up with WLRN to address sea-level rise.

Host Tom Hudson spoke with members of the editorial boards – Nancy Ancrum of The Miami Herald, Rick Christie of The Palm Beach Post and Rosemary O’Hara of The Sun-Sentinel – about the latest from The Invading Sea media collaborative.

This post will be updated after today’s episode of The Florida Roundup at noon.
